Mets +120 at Phillies

I will go against Freddy Garcia until he proves otherwise. He had a nice run at the end of the season last year. He was shit for 80% of the year and he has lost his velocity. Anytime you get a single, consider it a double as he refuses to hold runners on.

Orioles +110 at Devil Rays

The Mets/Phillies game is rained out.

I don't know how to read baseball odds, but Harang is not going to have three bad outings in a row. He's been great against the Astros and I think he will pitch well at home. I'd take the Reds tonight.

Cincinnati is -135. So you must risk 135 to win 100 on Cincinnati to win the game.

Minnesota (-165)

I normally don't lay more than -150, but I will roll the dice with Santana.

The troubling thing about baseball is that the starting pitching is critical to the reason for taking a team but the starter will not be pitching the entire game. You saw this last night.

16-13

Sox -140 against Texas

Texas coming off the no hitter now faces the Sox pitcher with the best stuff (and on a roll, no less).

Most websites offer lines for the 1st 5 innings.

I really don't play baseball and I have never used a website. I just throw my opinions out here for the hell of it.

I'm glad you put your picks out there. Coast rarely plays bases, so I don't want to be the only one posting.

You're doing a great job Chus, keep in coming!

Just out of principle, I'm going to play the White Sox +148 today, and I may even give the Cubs a shot at +120. Great value for the White Sox today that we shouldn't see very often.
